    Author: Tribouilloy CM, Peltier M, Iannetta-Peltier MC, Zhu Z, Andréjak M, Lesbre JP.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 1999 Sep 01; 84(5):603-5, A9. PubMed ID: 10482166.
    Abstract:
    This prospective study, which included 320 patients, showed that total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides correlate with thoracic aortic atherosclerosis. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is identified as an independent predictor of thoracic aortic plaque related to the severity of thoracic aortic atherosclerosis.
